We used to go to this restaurant when it was in Camara do Lobos. In essence it is a fast food restaurant that does beef kebab with indifferent chips. Basil says he concentrates on using quality meat but every time the second skewer is full of grisle. If you are a broke British tourist this is the place for you.... more

Anyone looking for a fine dining experience is clearly in the wrong part of town. This simple, clean, well run restaurant does exactly what it says on the door, serves good, simple food. It EXCELS at its speciality espatada, served with charm and a smile. The restaurant is located in a small area of shops in a newly developed part... more

Not my idea of a dining experience, very 'greasy spoon' like, but the food is good, although the choice is very limited. A good budget night out though more

We had this restaurant recommended to us by our taxi driver who said the Madeirans love it. We went there with our friends from Madeira who thought it was the best espetada they had tasted!

Just back from 2 weeks in Madeira and had to try it out again as sometimes places can vary over time. My only criticism this time was that we couldn't get a table the first night so the word has obviously got around since I posted last. It is still a very nice, family-owned and run restaurant and the food... more

After being disappointed by the food and prices in a number of Funchal restaurants, this place was a great find. In fact, so good that we dined there four nights in a row. It is very basic and with a limited menu but what they do, they do very well indeed. The menu focuses on meat - skewers of barbecued... more

Best ESPETADA you are likely to have. This was recommended to us by our taxi driver and what a find. This would not have been a restanrant we would have found, if it had not been for Manny. This is run by a South African Madeiran and the steak in the Espetada was the best I have tasted anywhere in... more
